Published January 2021. The garish neon lights of New York City's Times Square can be very seductive. And so can the promises of dark pleasures on the seedier side streets. To Davey Owen, the lure of a glowing sign advertising "Live Girls" was too hard to resist. He was looking for a little entertainment. He found instead a nightmare in the form of a beautiful but strangely pale woman. A woman who offers him passion, ecstasy - and eternal life - but takes in exchange his lifeblood and his very soul.
This new edition of Live Girls features a new introduction by Ray Garton, and two bonus stories: "Hair of the Dog" and "Devon," as well as new dustjacket art by Adam Braun and archival art by Ron Lesser.
This 384-page book has full black cloth binding with stamping in multiple colors. The book has head and tail bands, ribbon marker, and a top-edge stain, along with full wraparound dustjacket art.

Synopsis
Davey's on the down and out when he loses his girl, his job and practically his sanity. While some men drown themselves in a forgiving bottle, Davey believes it's much more profitable to sink into Times Square's nightlife and lose himself inside Live Girls. They are the free ravishing pleasures who beckon Davey into a world of irresistible fantasy and ecstasy. One of them propositions him with a kiss, an insatiable kiss that leads him far from the misery he once felt to a demonic place where body and soul are sacrificed for obsessions.
